| All publishers who distribute newspapers in Maryland are
reminded that quarterly and annual reports of their usage of recycled content newsprint
must be filed with the Maryland Department of the Environment. Newspapers are required to
file whether or not they print their own newspaper. If a newspaper does not print its own
paper, then the newspaper and its printer must file appropriate reports. Any newspaper that does not file reports on a quarterly and annual basis is in
noncompliance with the state’s mandatory newsprint recycling law.
Filing deadlines under the state’s Newsprint Recycled Content Act
are:
- Jan 31 — for October-December of the previous year
- Jan 31 — for previous year's Annual Report
- Apr 30 — for January - March of the current year
- Jul 31 — for April - June of the current year
- Oct 31 — for July l - September of the current year
Please contact MDDC Press
Association for more information or for additional forms.
